The optional EFI engine provides:
1. 12% to 27% better fuel economy provides longer run times between fill ups. It saves up to $1,000 per year in fuel - based on 25 hours of usage/week at $3/gallon.

2. Reduced emissions - 33% lower HC+Nox levels and 27% lower CO (EPA 1000 Hour Certification).

3. Easy starting in all climates wit no choke required.

4. Better high-altitude performance (electric fuel pump is recommended)

5. EFI is more reliable when using equipment infrequently.

6. 12,000 watts of generator power and more weld output.
